Description
VARIETAL. 100% Pinot NoirVINEYARD. Truchard Vineyard, Napa Valley.
WINEMAKING. This single-vineyard wine hails from the Truchard vineyard in Los Carneros, a region of Napa greatly influenced by cool marine-moderated temperatures with a geographic alchemy that creates ideal growing conditions for Pinot Noir. The Truchard family is one of the Pinot Noir pioneers of the Carneros area and the vineyard is considered a California Heritage Landmark. Barrel-aged in French Oak (45% new barrels) for 11 months. A true expression of the Carneros terroir.
TASTING
Aroma: An inviting, delicate perfume of violet, dried raspberry, black tea. bitter orange, vanilla, rose petal, and pomegranate.
Palate: The mouth is sumptuously smooth, and the firm acidity and delicate tannins provide a lingering finish of soft spice, cherry, hibiscus & cranberry.
FOOD PAIRING. Serve this versatile wine with crab cakes, a balsamic pear and gorgonzola salad, roasted cedar plank salmon, roasted duck breast, or a creamy mushroom truffle pasta.
